Ikati alimthandi umnikazi?

Ngolunye usuku oluhle, umnikazi wekati angase acabange ukuthi uyalizonda. Lokhu kuyiqiniso ikakhulukazi uma unezilwane ezizimele, futhi ungumnikazi wazo wesikhathi eside.

Ziningi izinganekwane mayelana namakati, futhi enye evame kakhulu ukuthi ayizidalwa ezikude. Kuyiqiniso ukuthi zizimele, kodwa ziyizilwane ezihlala emphakathini, nakuba zihlukile ezinjeni. Ungakuchaza kanjani ukuziphatha kobuhle bakho obuthambile?

Imizwa

UJohn Bradshaw, umbhali we-Cat Sense, uchazela i-NPR ukuthi umuzwa wemvelo wezilwane ungakwenza ucabange ukuthi ikati alinandaba nomnikazi walo noma umnikazi walo: “Zivela ezilwaneni ezihlala zodwa ezingakaze zidinge isimiso somphakathi.”

Ngokungafani nezinja ezihamba ngamaphakethe, amakati, ikakhulukazi, angabazingeli ababodwa, abajwayele ukusinda ngokwabo. Kodwa izilwane ezifuywayo zasendlini azidingi ukuzingela ukudla (nakuba zizingela inyamazane ngendlela yamathoyizi namasokisi akho) futhi zithembele ngokuphelele kubanikazi bazo ukuze ziphile. Ikati lidinga ukuthi uhlangabezane nezidingo zalo zokudla, amanzi, impilo nothando, kodwa ukuzimela - njengophawu lomlingiswa walo - akupheli ndawo!

Udinga inkululeko

Kungase kubonakale sengathi lokhu kuphambene nomqondo ovamile, kodwa uma unikeza ikati lakho inkululeko eyengeziwe, uthando lwakho oluhlangene luyoba namandla. I-Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals itusa “ukuvumela ikati ukuthi lingene kuwo wonke amagumbi” kunokuba lilinganiselwe kwelinye noma amabili. Ikati elijabulisayo yilelo elinendawo yalo (noma ezimbili noma ezintathu) endlini, lapho ungathatha khona ikhefu kubantu abacasulayo.

Lapho uletha isilwane esifuywayo esisha noma esikhulile endlini, cishe bazothola izindlela eziningi zokukunaka. Ngakolunye uhlangothi, ikati lingase likufihlele noma lenze inyumbazane, lenze ucabange ukuthi alikuthandi. Kodwa lokhu akunjalo neze. Akukona ngawe, kumayelana naye.

Angaziphathisa ngamabomu kuphela ngoba ubengajwayele ukuba phakathi kwabantu. Ukuze uqinise ubungane bakho nesilwane esifuywayo esisha, i-PetMD incoma ukuthi uvumele ikati lakho lithathe isinyathelo sokuqala esikhundleni sokulijaha ukuze lazi ukuthi liphuma kuye, noma okungenani limnike umuzwa. Ungahlala umyenga ukuba aphume ekucashile ngokumnika ubumnandi. Isilwane sakho esifuywayo sizokwethemba kakhulu uma sinendawo yaso eyimfihlo yokucasha. Uma eseyifunele indawo enjalo (ngaphansi kombhede, ngemuva kosofa), makacashe lapho noma nini lapho efuna.

Ubudala bekati

Njengoba izidingo zekati lakho zishintsha, indlela yakho yokunakekela ikati lakho idinga ukushintsha ngokufanele. Izilwane eziningi ezindala zidinga izimo ezinethezekile kunangaphambili. Ngaphezu kokunaka kakhulu ukushintsha kwezidingo zezempilo, ababhali be-portal note ye-PetMD, ukuze ugcine futhi uqinise ubungane bakho, udinga ukukunikeza uthando olwengeziwe kanye nendawo efinyeleleka kalula yokuphumula. Lapho ikati liqonda ukuthi ungathenjwa, lizokubonga ngothando nokuzinikela.

Ingabe ikati lakho likuzonda? Hhayi!

Ikati lidinga uthando lwakho. Udinga ukuba yedwa ukuze aphumule futhi "ashaje", kodwa lapho evuka, ngeke abonakale. Amakati amaningi athanda ukufihla amahora endaweni ethile endlini, ukuze avele ngokuzumayo futhi abambe ngokuphelele ukunaka kwakho. Ungamphiki lobumnandi. Uthando lwakho aluboniswa nje kuphela ngokuphulula nokudlala, kodwa nalapho umnikeza ukudla okusha namanzi, ukame izinwele zakhe, unakekele impilo yakhe futhi uhlanze ibhokisi lakhe likadoti njalo (nsuku zonke zingcono kakhulu, ikakhulukazi uma unamakati amaningana) .

Thola indawo ephakathi phakathi kokubonisa uthando nokupha ikati inkululeko eyanele isho ukwakha ubuhlobo obude nobujabulisayo naye.
